Also, codex entries show up when the pets are finished growing. It makes no sense to have the codex entries update at midnight when a ton of people's pets aren't going to grow until later.

I'm confused by this, what exactly does this mean? I thought the codex already updated once all the outcomes for a pet species grew up. D:

it means that he had to do the codex codes manually, the fact that all of the pets grew up meant he could add them, but they weren't already implemented and ready to go when they did. I hope that made sense XD

Finally every pet grows at midnight. No need to adopt the new monthly pets as fast as possible. (:

Thanks for all the hard work Zayin :)

Having pets grow at midnight is a great update; it simplifies things a bit =]

Awesome updates!!
If I may allowed to ask, will the codex look like normal in the future or will you leave the code like it is now? ^^

We may return it to the pets being grouped together if it becomes a big deal at some point, but it's just that it would be something extra to build, and an extra step in the process of adding pets every month, because the data is naturally not structured that way. All for a relatively minor feature that we only use on 1st stage creatures. We tend not to group stage 2 growths because they usually grow on different days.

Maybe I'm missing it, but I can't see the difference in the codex? lol Not like I studied it often before, though, I suppose.
I do love how open this site is with updates and letting users know what is being worked on!
Also love the pets grow at midnight automatically. I tend to not adopt at midnight (sleep and all lol)... By the time I realise it's the 1st, my pets are hours late growing. xD Now it won't matter what time I adopt them, as long as I get them the 1st day, they will be on time! Love it!
